I presumed these were scuds at first, they do look like some kind of insect larvae though...
I have have no knowledge about crustaceans/insects so I'm probably totally wrong...

Anyway, they keep raising their tails and small hairs there start moving as if they are filtering water or something like that. Kind of shrimpy behaviour eh?

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
